Time-Limited Tasks: Players are given a list of tasks to complete within a certain time frame. The game is designed so not all tasks can be completed within the time given. Whoever completes the most, wins. [Edit: Points system.]

20 Questions v2.0: Same style as The Empathy List, where the correct guesser takes over the responsibility as host. In the event that no one guesses the subject, the current host runs another round.

Black Jack: Self explanatory, everyone starts with a certain amount of chips and can play any hand they want.

Battle RP: Two sides battle it out in an RP to determine which team is the victor. One on one battles, with the winner being determined by majority. (Potential: Marvel Superheroes/Villains vs. DC Superheroes/Villains)

Caption Contest: With this modification, the players are their own judges! Each caption is submitted via PM and at the end of the round, the host posts all the captions, anonymously. The players rate all captions, but their own rating doesn’t count. Last one standing wins.

Telephone Pictionary: You might’ve played Telephone some time when you were younger. This forum game combines that with Pictionary. The players are separated into groups (depends on how many players, so if we’re talking about ~10 players, no grouping is needed). The first player comes up with a phrase, tells it to me and I give it to the second player. The second player draws a picture based on the phrase, links it to me and I send it off to the third player. This continues until all players have done their part. Note that the game MUST end with a phrase and not a picture!

Identity: Based on the game show of the same name, Identity is about matching 12 strangers (in this case, 12 fellow Kongregators) one-by-one with phrases about their identities. Here’s an example game.

What Were You Thinking?: I’m not gonna bother explaining this, because it would be just confusing. It’s about picking items from a theme and scoring if other players picked any same items. Here’s an example.

myhome16:

Through the Dimensional Looking Glass: Pairs of people from different time priods and regions of Earth are transported to a different dimense, the playthings of Gods.

Nice to see you took the people’s ideas, are making FG better, and less clogged with un-games.

Theme is Wild Western. :P

Game #1
I was thinking of making a mafia, 10vs10 (kinda), Wild West style. It would be bands of settlers, and with every settlement there are thugs. Two seemingly normal people are on each team, they know each other, and agree on someone to NK every night. If one dies, the other does everything with 75% success rate.

In the day, one person from each team is voted off as a thug, and for entertainment, sent to battle the alleged thug of the other team or settlement. Being easily impressionable and superstitious, the people think if the person survives two brawls, he is not evil, and gets to come back. He will only be investigated and cleared/confirmed once dead.
I will use a 1-2 generator to decide winners, btw.

There will be special roles, like one Marshal on each team, who win if they are voted off and come back after two brawls. Or others such as the gambler, which pick a man each night who they think will die, and win if successful twice.

Game #2

Another Wild West game, and mafia-ish. It’s marshals vs banditos, but it’s like people are in combat. Instead of day and night, there will be turns. Starts out as a shoot out, where EVERYONE PMs me someone to kill, with 75% success rate, and they go in order I receive them.

So, D would shoot Player B. Easy. He’s the first one. If he makes the 75%, he’s free for now.
B is no longer able to play, and since he chose D, is canceled out. He falls.
Player C is next. He shoots B, but B has already fallen, and he therefor misses.
Player A is last, and he shoots C. No one shot him, luckily, so if he makes the shot, one less person to deal with.

Two winners. A and D

Or, say D misses, and B makes the shot on him.
D is dead, B is alive. C shoots B next, and makes it.
A shoots C and makes it. Everyone but A is dead, so he wins the shootout.

Note: There will be more players, so there’ll be more survivors, able to do the next steps.

Then, they move to battle, where they go to cover and try to pick each other off again, now with 50% success rate. (The cover provides protection) They do this for three more turns, and if a winner does not emerge, they start getting tactical, and gain 75% success rate on kills. First team to wipe out the other one, all remaining players win.
I think I might add a 10% chance the bullet doesn’t kill you, but lowers accuracy 25%

It’d be a mafia, but not, and fast paced. I would probably do 2 or 3 rounds because it would go by fast. Might even add roles, as to what weapons people are carrying.

Game #3

The others are Wild West, so why not a third? This one would be a Wild West RP, with shootouts, doctor visits, public bountys, lawmen, and rewards for bringing in criminals. Think Red Dead Textvolver or Red Dead Retextion.

So, players could band up in groups and raid villages, or invade gang hideouts, unlock weapons, ride horses, hunt. Btw, the ‘unlock weapons’ would be, visit a dealer OR gunshop, and they supply you after a one time purchase after unlock.

Players could travel freely, fight gangs, rob gold mines, become famous or rich, anything. Anything Wild Western is able to do or become.

Also, for deleting your previous topic: Delete all of your posts (Other than the first post, obviously). That should lower the number of posts back to 10. The option to delete the topic will appear next to the title.

I might post a thread, where you guys could shoot ideas, reflect on others and mine, and overall tell me what you want to make of the game. If you guys want this, it will be up until my other game falls, and you will have tons of time to brainstorm and decide. It might also turn into the Sign-ups thread, so I don’t have to make another thread.

#1. I was thinking either a Pokemon Role-Playing Game where you could be a trainer or a pokemon. The pokemon could be made by science like mewtwo or a wild or a starter. They could battle explore etc. etc.

#2. A naruto role-play. They would select the village they would like to be in. The one with the most picks is where everyone would start in. They could Train with others battle etc. etc. And you make you charecter

#3.A simple Game Tourney with different subjects the signers would choose.

I’d just like to clarify that this, whenever it dies, should still be used when necessary. I don’t want to hear the “oh sorry I knew about this thread but I didn’t post in it because it was inactive” excuse in 2014…

I was thinking of making a second hostility game. It would be placed on the north pole of the planet from the first hostility game. It would be called something like “Hostility: Great North”. Anyone interested?

Bluji’s Next Game

1. Down to On3 (Down to One 3) Votes: zero Down 2 One (Down to One 2) is ending soon. Down to On3 would follow the same pattern: multiple rounds of 24 to 48 hours, and finally, ending with an epic final round leading Down to One!

2. Life’s a Mafia Game Votes: two (coolo2011, blakzer) Jack Moore is an ordinary man with a wife, a lovely daughter, a nice house and a well-payed job. But Jack’s life also has a dark side. Alcohol, gambling, depression… Can he survive his dark side to see a bright and a long life, or will his death be tragic by alcohol or depression? This game is a normal mafia game with a slight twist. Each player is an aspect of Jack’s life. Which means that if the player whose role is “Jack’s Wife” gets nightkilled, the day-starting message may introduce something like: Jack woke up in the morning. It was a rainy day, and Jack wondered it a bit, because when he had watched the television in last evening, the weatherman had said it will be a sunny morning. When Jack finally arrived to the kitchen, he understood what was wrong. His wife, Shirley and a gun were laying on the kitchen floor. There was a suicide note on the table. “Jack, I just couldn’t handle the debts anymore. I’m sorry. Shirley.”

3. Deepspace Votes: two (AdeebNafees, Fogfun) “Welcome to Deepspace. This place could be a dream for you. Or maybe, by your best chances, it will be your biggest nightmare.” Deepspace, a zone of neither reality nor fantasy, is a place where you must let go and trust your senses to continue. Psychological puzzles, gaming and many other things will come to your way while wandering out in the Deepspace. It is a place which seems like a person, though neither a man nor a woman, god nor demon, song nor story. It is nothing, while it is everything. Can you survive?

My next game over here!
1. World War 0.5 Votes:0
A medieval RP where primitive versions of aliens come down to Earth and start fighting. They’re primitive so you can be either side without being overpowered. The story goes a little like this: A group of aliens were sent out on a mission to conquer any planet with life on, to prove to their planet and all others that they mean business. They studied Earth for months before building weapons to match the humans and came down. They first started in the town of Myrtledor, the location for most of the game. The ending would be based on things like RP quality from each side so any side with Adeeb, Fog, Gambi, pludr or B_S automatically wins The sign ups would remain open until the game is close to ending.
2. Cliche Title Votes:1 [Adeeb]
A modern RP set in Cliche Town after a radiation leak giving rise to people with powers, reffered to as the Superpowered Ones. The Mayor of Cliche Town decided it would be best for the town to be put in a quarantine. However, since the army couldn’t get in, it quickly decended into chaos. two factions arose: Heroes, dedicated to defending the town and the world, and Villains, wanting to take over the town and use it to take over the world. The sign-ups would remain open for most of the game, and which faction wins is decided by things like RP quality so Adeeb, Gambi, plud, Fog and B_S autowins.

Self explanatory.

Self explanatory.

I am confused in voting between 1 and 2 Actually, the side with Fogfun or Blood_shadow would win. Ahem. Also, I have finally decided to vote for 2 And I will snipe you tonight for repeatedly typing in my name and forgetting everyone else. Where is pludr, Gambi, Blood, Fog etc?

Ok, I’ll add your vote and everybody else’s name. The side with Gambi in would win anyway because Gambi would kill everyone else.
